Holy crap, its hard to tell without another player for a comparison but he looks like a lineman in that picture. Those 3rd and shorts should be a breeze for him.

If it was an issue, then I would assume someone else would have brought it up. That may be a bad angle who knows. Does look big though. But if they told him to gain then he truly may be groomed for that goal line and 2/3rd short role.

I think it was the angle of the photo. (Remember the firefighter in the Iwo like flag raising at Ground Zero? He looked chunky in the photo but when they took another of him from a different angle he was pretty slender.)

Here is a 2nd camp picture of Eddie




edit- maybe those gloves made him look fat so he ditched them for another pair that doesn't.

rookie orientation weekend May 29. He couldn't put on that much weight in 60 days unless he did not work out at all.

Yeah, and I thought I recently read a Mike McCarthy quote that said he was looking good and has been working hard since OTA's. Something I always try to remember: Your Eyes Lie to You. Often, it's tough to believe what we see (or at least what we THINK we see). That's especially true when looking at photos.

Well, I also recall a recent article on Lacy (a good one at that) where he had said he was eating/snacking too much and gained some weight. His mom yelled at him for that (lol).

I'm sure its a bad angle picture/maybe he did put on a few pounds but it will certainly come off in the upcoming weeks of practice and preseason games. I don't think its an issue at all but the picture just made me look twice.

lol, true! That picture made me think I was looking at Quinn Johnson for a minute!! [aiee] [aiee] [aiee]

Its tough to tell

I haven't seen a single beat writer/reporter/fan/coach or anyone mention Lacy being overweight yet. If he was that heavy you'd think it would have come up at some point.
